The History of Love sets out to explore the multifaceted emotion of love and it achieves its purpose. The lives of the main characters illustrate the tragedy of loving too much, the joy of being loved, and the suffering that is endured throughout a lifetime deprived of love. The book also explores how love can motivate us to perform selfless acts of good as well as drive us to commit malicious acts of selfishness. And if these descriptions sound succinct and to the point, then I’ve done a disservice to the remarkable talent of Nicole Krauss. Love is never clearly defined and it’s never one constant thing. Rather, the emotion is many different things and it’s continuously changing. Krauss captures these dynamics through the experiences of her characters and her story seamlessly ties these dynamics together. The end result is a spectrum that allows the reader to reflect on their own feelings of love as experienced in their own lives and in their own ways. Even now, days after reading the last page, subtleties of this book are still coming to light within the context of Krauss’ spectrum. I also have to complement Krauss on the structure of the book. The physical layout of the chapters and the compression of the dialogue serve to bring the reader closer to the characters and closer to their emotions. By the last page, I felt as if I had just seen a live theatrical production complete with actors and sets. I think that love deserves this level of intensity and a more conventional writing structure would have only added distance between the reader and the emotion. Overall, The History of Love is truly remarkable and is highly recommended for anyone that is interested in complexities of love and its influences on life.

A good example of how screenwriters needn't make everything tie up to make a satisfying film. A lot of the heavier plot points in the book don't end up in the film, to the latter's benefit. Also a good touchstone for grammatically-challenged writers. Orthography is obviously not a valued skill in the world of film production.
